The Bridgeview, Justice, and Argo-Summit Lions Clubs held their third annual Oktoberfest at the Branding Iron in Bridgeview on Saturday.
The celebration was highlighted by the polka music of Eddie Korosa Jr. and his band.
At one point in the evening, emcee and Justice Lion Brian Bernardoni joined Korosa on the mic to sing “Roll Out the Barrel” to the cheers from fest-goers.
Besides the singing and dancing, including Korosa getting the crowd involved in the Chicken Dance, bratwurst, pretzel bites and other delicious foods were available.
